In a very close election, the final polls gave the win to the SNOW MISER for the title of Official Holiday Mascot 2007. Snow Miser's campaign office released the following quote from the Holiday Mascot-Elect: "As your Official Holiday Mascot 2007 : "I promise to set aside partisanship and deliver a Winter Wonderland Holiday for everyone!"
SNOW Miser and his nefarious step brother, HEAT Miser, entered into a runoff election several weeks ago in an attempt to settle once and for all who should be official Holiday Mascot for 2007. Many supporters of both misers turned out for the event, but in the end the SNOW Miser Minions were able to bring their candidate to victory.
HEAT Miser is expected to visit SNOW Miser's campaign headquarters in Iceland to congratulate Snow Miser on his victory and to give an official concession speach. A victory party is planned to go all night and those invited will recieve a gift basked including a cashmere sweater , peppermint ice cream, Snowy Pops (popsicles shaped like the Snow Miser), and will be entered into a drawing for an Alaskan cruise. Snow Miser's cabinet will consist of his fiancee Princess Frostine of Candyland in the position of Vice Mascot, and Frosty the Snowman will be heading the public relations department.

Berger Meister Meister Berger says: "I HATE TOYS! Also, I like Heat Miser! Thanks to Heat Miser I no longer slip on icy patches when I walk outside, just on all the TOYS. I support Heat Miser as official holiday mascot because I think his warmth really adds to the holiday season!"
Winter Warlock Says: "Hello all my friends! Ever since Kris Kringle melted my icy heart with his first gift to me, I have been keenly aware of the importance of shaking off the cold icy existence of pessismism and replacing it with a warm friendliness. Heat Miser is so good at melting things that surely he will melt all the cold hearts in the World. Maybe even the cold hearted Snow Miser can be helped!"
Princess Frostine and Frosty the Snowman Endorse Snow Miser
Princess Frostine and Frosty the Snowman today anouncned their support for Snow Miser.
Princess Frostine Says: "Me and my Fiance Snow Miser both believe that at the end of the day American's, candy landers, and all those other nationalities are going to make the right decision. Snowy and I our planning our wedding for December 23rd the day after he gets elected."
Frosty the Snowman Says: "'Happy Birthday' that's the words you WON'T hear me saying this year if you elect that fiery fiend the Heat Miser as your holiday mascot. I so want to see Karen and all my other friends this winter and I would like to see all of you gentle voters too. Remember it takes more than an old felt hat and a corn cobb pipe to make a snowman. It takes snow, and snow is something you are not going to get if you vote for Heat Miser.

Who are the Misers?
Heat Miser and Snow Miser gained much of their fame due to the 1974 Rankin Bass made for tv special, "The Year Without a Santa Claus," in which they battle over the fate of Southtown USA's Christmas, assisted by their bands of imp-like minions who are also small, identical replicas of themselves. These famous half-brothers run hot and cold in their attitude toward each other, but are equally passionate about the holidays! They especially enjoy performing snappy rag time song and dance numbers for their fans and political supporters.
While it may seem like Heat Miser and Snow Miser are very alike (and in certain ways they are) they have some key differences. For example, everything that Snow Miser touches turns to ice, while Heat Miser's touch has the opposite effect. Also, Heat Miser prefers the warm climes of the South, and Snow Miser prefers more northerly regions, such as the North Pole.

Great footage of each of our candidates performing their campaign song and dance. A coin was flipped to determine that Snow Miser would perform first, followed by Heat Miser:
Let's Put the Warmth Back In the Holidays!
Vote for Heat Miser and Put the Warmth back in the Holidays!
Hello there good people and welcome to the Holiday Mascot poll for 2007. A vote for Heat Miser is a vote for Holiday Warmth! Who better to add the warm glow of the holiday season to your celebrations than HEAT MISER? Who could possible be a better expert about warmth management than someone who lives inside of a Volcano?
Along with his band of minions, (who will make up his cabinet) Heat Miser promises to shake out all those chilly shivers, dropping temperatures, and cold shoulders this holiday season! Recent research shows a significant drop in holiday warmth over the past several years. There are many theories on why this is, but of course the most plausible explanations all have to due with the 'other' miser we won't mention here. Not to say he's directly responsible, but then again it's possible.
Voting for Heat Miser is like voting for everything great about the holidays...the comfy warm glow of the fireplace, and soothing heat of a cup of hot cocoa, and the cuddly warmth of a Christmas kitten all snuggled up inside of your Christmas stocking.
VOTE FOR HEAT MISER AND PUT THE WARMTH BACK IN THE HOLIDAYS!
A vote for Snow Miser is a vote for tolerance and moderation.
I believe that each season needs to be celebrated. Who doesn't love the gift of a beautiful cashmere sweater or scarf? What will you do with all those lovely gifts if you don't get a cold spell every once in awhile?
My friends there is a reason for each season. And my season is all about putting your hot temper behind you for a couple of months and just being kind to one another. You don't have to worry about that unsightly flab for a few months. If you let my hot head of a brother and his minion's take over the holiday you can say hello to bikinis and Speedos (EW!) and goodbye to Santa cookies hand decorated with spun sugar icing (Yum!).
I won't waste any more of your time reading this. I think we already know what your vote is going to be ;).
Chillingly Yours,
Snow Miser
